The summer has brought out the best in many of us this year. Laidlaw Group client Boston’s Best Cruises is a shining example. Boston’s Best Cruises agreed to donate a portion of their ticket sales for their Sunset and Harbor Cruises to The FA Project for the entire summer season. As their agency, we were lucky enough to be able to introduce Boston Best Cruises to this extraordinary organization whose brand Laidlaw Group is helping to build. For us as an agency, meeting Richie and Maria has been a gift and we are grateful for the opportunity to help them.

The FA Project, a 501(c)(3) Charitable Organization established in Massachusetts, is dedicated to creating awareness of Friedreich’s Ataxia (FA), a debilitating, degenerative neuromuscular disease. Co-founded by Winthrop, MA natives Maria and Richie Currier (who suffers from FA), the organization educates the public by increasing the visibility of related information and resources and creating a support system for those afflicted with FA. They also provide those living with FA with assistance and resources to help them live the best quality life possible.
To help promote additional funding, The FA Project is hosting its first ever Fundraising Cruise aboard Boston’s Best Cruises Voyager III on September 10, 2011 at 7pm. Guests will set sail on the Boston Harbor, enjoying cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres and spectacular views of the city of Boston as they mingle with fellow supporters of this amazing organization. We invite you to join us.
